Top 3 Most Effective Animated Explainers of All Time
March 31, 2015

Animated explainer videos have only recently been on the video marketing agenda. Common Craft, a small instructional video company out of Seattle is credited with the first educational explainer video back in 2007.
Only being on the scene for a short 9 years, animated explainers have caught the attention of marketing and business professionals because they increase online visibility, click-through rates and conversions while decreasing bounce rates. It almost sounds like magic, right?
Production for explainer videos has increased substantially since 2007, as brands and companies are realizing their power. However, explainers are still a unique way to communicate a product or service that is difficult to convey. Not to mention, an explainer can turn a boring subject into something fun. In this post, we’ll identify and analyze the top 3 most effective animated explainers of all time.
Spotify was released in the United States in 2011, and they used an animated explainer to announce themselves. The explainer video earned Spotify 1 million U.S paid subscribers and 5 million subscribers worldwide within the first year. That’s 10x the growth of Spotify’s competitors.
Whether your company is business-to-business or business-to-consumer, animated explainer videos are effective in increasing the bottom line. A wise investment, video production of these types of videos can increase conversions and grow your business at unprecedented rates. Ready to get started on your very own explainer video?
